Mia Lindsey leads WSP’s national Water Major Projects team in Australia, and she enjoys bringing people together to create the right team environments and mixes of skills to deliver great project outcomes.
“To me, there are few things more fun or rewarding than forming and working with a great team to bring a project vision to life. I see each project as an opportunity to achieve strategic business goals and build capability of the organisation, my project team, and myself,” Says Mia.
“I am a woman of color who has worked in the field of engineering for nearly 30 years. When I was coming up, there were very few role models that looked like me, and I didn’t always feel seen and heard. I never want anyone to feel like I don’t see them or hear them. I have always wanted to achieve big things, but you can’t achieve big things alone – you need a great team. I believe that everyone in a team has something valuable to contribute. That’s why it’s so important to approach project delivery in a collaborative and inclusive way.”
Mia will be chairing the Stream 2 session on ‘organisational culture’ kicking off at 10.35am on 1st May.
